Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 2nd

Verse 1:
G+G        B minorBm  E minorEm   G+G
Looking back on conversations
  C majorC
And tales that we are told
C majorC
Hearts as pure as gold
    E minorEm         D MajorD
Holding hands like best of friends
   G+G    B minorBm E minorEm   G+G
Talk about our occupations
   C majorC
That some day we would hold
     C majorC
What we'd do when we'd get old
    G+G         D MajorD
How our lives would never end
  C majorC       G+G
For hours we would walk alone
  C majorC         G+G
And sing and laugh and practice songs
C majorC     E minorEm       G+G        D MajorD
Never even wondering where all the time had gone

Verse 2:
    G+G           C majorC
Growing old and never wiser we tried to figure out
   C majorC
What existence was about
  G+G       D MajorD
Metaphysics in our heads
    G+G
Sharing all of our frustrations
   C majorC
We'd never be alone
    C majorC
In our fight to make it home
     E minorEm       D*
What home was we'd never know

Verse 3:
       E minorEm   D MajorD   G+G
And then came catcher in the rye
       E minorEm D MajorD     G+G
We kissed our innocence goodbye
     E minorEm    D MajorD   G+G
Years of schooling almost done
      E minorEm   D MajorD   G+G
Our time together nearly gone
        C majorC      G+G
We looked each other in the eye
       BB         E minorEm
Knowing full well we'd say goodbye
  C majorC                 E minorEm      D MajorD
Our days of holding hands were slowly winding to an end
    E minorEm        G+G
Off to college we would laugh and talk
  E minorEm    G+G
Philosophy over our walks
 E minorEm          G+G       D MajorD
Beneath the stars we'd gaze up at the sky

Chorus:
         E minorEm  D MajorD  G+G
And friends have come and gone and died
     E minorEm  D MajorD  G+G   E minorEm D MajorD
Left our hopes all out to try
   E minorEm  D MajorD  G+G
Not a shoulder there to lean upon
   D7D7    C majorC  G/F#
What have we become

Verse 4:
    G+G
Now it seems you are a stranger
   C majorC
When once you were a twin
     E minorEm
They say quitters never win
      G+G      D MajorD
But giving up is what I did
   G+G
Lying here so far from you
 C majorC
I wonder where you are
      E minorEm                 D MajorD
I think of you but heavens knows if you're the same

Verse 5:
        G+G
'Cause to this day I've never seen you
  C majorC
But maybe once before
     E minorEm
You were walking out a door
   G+G           D MajorD
And I think I'd caught your eye
     G+G
When you turned and walked away
   C majorC
Like you didn't recognize
    E minorEm
Telling me with your own eyes
       G+G        D MajorD
You've moved on and you were gone

Chorus:
      E minorEm   D MajorD     G+G
And it's cliché but you'll be in my heart
     E minorEm D MajorD G+G    E minorEm  D MajorD
Till the day we aren't apart again
    E minorEm  D MajorD G+G
And you probably won't be there
       E minorEm D MajorD G+G    C majorC    D MajorD
But I'll hold on enough to care to say
 Em*       C*      D*
I love you, always have and always will

Outro:
    G*
I look back on conversations
  C*
And tales that we are told
Em*
Hearts as pure as gold
    C*         D*
We held hands like best of friends


* means one strum down
